Mens' clubs

[LeeBot]

A lot of these clubs were formed when large parts of society viewed women as being inferior to men or that the interests of either sex were mutually exclusive. What's the thinking or logic behind it these days?

Of course, membership being dependent on moustache size makes perfect sense for the Handlebar Moustache Club But ladies are allowed to attend aren't they?

As long as there is freedom of choice I don't see why would we prevent men to organize in all-men club. Same as women, same as homosexuals, same as a religious group or whatever.

I go to a men's barbershop cause I don't want to listen to ladies talk about haircuts, i want to read a sports magazine not vogue, want to talk about shaving brushes without someone thinking I'm a make up artist.... What's wrong with that?

Every reasonable group of individuals can organize themself how they see fit, as long as they are not hurting anyone or affecting anyone's freedom.

This whole gender thing has went too far and is full of invalid arguments which are repeated over and over.

Don't know if you have seen - Johnie Walker launched its Jane Walker whisky. Some say it's just marketing some say its due to public pressure & this whole wave of political correctness....


As to clubs, never been in one, I like it as an idea and I would like to visit one. As to is there a "need" for them - I'd say no. Clubs started before we had phones, video and conference calls, so many cars, planes, infrastructure etc so as a place to meet and arrange things. Modern business doesn't have time for that anymore. Imho.

Yes, of course ladies can attend. Men with beards can come along too, as can men who are clean shaven.

I'm also a member of a fraternal organisation which doesn't accept ladies. I have absolutely no problem with that whatsoever. I won't be hammering on the door of the local WI crying that they won't let me in.
